This is me... then

://STILL [bellalopez.com]

Verse 1
(When I sleep) I have dreams about the way we used to kiss
'Bout the way you used to hold me and say nothing will ever harm me
(When we first met) Oh, how you charmed me made me smile when I was down
Big pimpin' around the town (you and me) when ever they'd see you (they'd see me)
A lover and a friend to me you were how did it end
How it hurts to not have you in my life when I wanted to be your wife

You never know what you have 'till its gone
Treated you wrong for so long now you've gone away
But the love still lives here

Chorus
Still...
I still got love for you
Still...
After all we've been through
Still...
I gave my heart to you
And baby you were the only one
The only one
There's other men then you
Still...
They can't come close to you
Still..
Once I said I love you
I knew you'd be the only one

Verse 2
A good man you were to me always there to care
Would do anything in this world for me didn't matter, what, when, or where (you were there)
I never thought we'd part from the arguments I'd start
When I just wanted some attention well I'm sorry baby for bitchin'
(If I could) Take back the words that I said to make you leave
I'd be down on bended knees asking you to please forgive me

You never know what you have 'till its gone
Treated you wrong for so long now you've gone away
But the love still lives here

Chorus

Bridge
All of the good times we've had together (together)
Do they mean something to you
Do you ever wish we never split (never)
Still got love for you...

Chorus x2

://LOVING YOU [bellalopez.com] 

Verse 1
Would you mind
If I took the time to get to know you
Cause it's been a while
Since all we've been through
And even though I said my feelings wouldn't change
Nothing stays the same Ooh...

I can see when I look in your eyes
You mean no harm
It's just the way you manipulate me with your charm
And I could tell the love I have for you is still strong
And there ain't nothin wrong with me
Still loving you...

Chorus
After all that we've been through
I find myself still loving you
But I think we need to take the time
To get it right
Cause I never give up on a good thing
I never give up on the love we had Ooh..
We just need to take it slow

Verse 2
In the past, you would act as if you don't really care
You would fight and argue almost anywhere
Looking back sometimes, I feel like such a fool
For putting up with you Ooh...

Baby please...
Understand me if it seems I'm confused
It's just it might take me some time
To get used to you
When I think of all the things we used to do
Baby...I just find myself still loving you...

Chorus 2
After all that we've been through
I find myself still loving you
But I think we need to take the time
To get it right

Never gave up on the love we had,
Baby...we just need to take it slow

Bridge
I believe you and me have the chance to make this right
Oh baby if your heart is in it, I'm still with it
Even after all this time has passed
Ohh... I'm still loving you...

Chorus 3
After all that we've been through, yeah...
I find myself still loving you
But I think we need to take the time to get it right
Cause I never give up on a good thing (Never give up on a good thing)

Baby...we just need to take it slow

Chorus 4
After all that we've been through
I Find myself still loving you
But I think we need to take the time to get it right
Cause I never gave up on a good thing (Never give up)
Never gave up on the love we had (Love we had)
We just need to take it slow

://I'M GLAD [bellalopez.com]

://DEAR BEN [bellalopez.com] 

(You're perfect..)

Verse 1
I just can't control myself
Can't be with no one else
It seems I'm addicted to the way you like to touch me
I don't think they understand
Why I love at your command
From the words you speak so deep
Our bodies meet, I have to have you...

Chorus
I love you... you're perfect
A manifestation of my dreams
You make my...body feel
About a million different things...

Verse 2
I think God made you for me
A mix of passionate and fidelity
Baby you're so complete
I write this song to let you know
That you will always be
To me, my lust, my love, my man, my child, my friend
and my king...(my king)

I love you... you're perfect
A manifestation of my dreams
You make my...body feel
About a million different things...
There's no way
I'd leave you
It's just not a reality
Sometimes I...
Feel like I'm...
Livin' in a fantasy...

://ALL I HAVE feat. LL COOL J [bellalopez.com]

"Loving life and life is living,
It's very special..."

(LL Cool J)
Baby don't go, baby don't go
Baby don't go, baby don't go

(Jennifer)
Yeah, yeah... yeah, yeah

Verse 1
It's such a shame but I'm leavin'
Can't take the way you're mistreating me
And it's crazy, but oh baby
It don't matter, whatever don't phase me

(rap)
I don't believe you wanna leave like this
I don't believe I just had my last real kiss
I do believe we'll laugh and reminisce
Wait a minute, don't bounce baby,
let's talk about this man

Well, I'm bouncin' and I'm out son
I gotta leave you alone

B Section
Cause I'm good
Holdin' down my spot
and I'm good
Reppin' the girls on the block
And I'm good
I got this thing on lock
So without me you'll be fine-right

Chorus
All my pride is all I have
Pride is what you had, baby girl I'm what you had
You'll be needing me but too bad
Be easy, don't make decisions when you mad
The path you chose to run along
I know you independent, you can make it on your own
Here with me you had a home, oh yeah...
The time is of the essence, why spend it alone

Verse 2
The nights I waited up for you (Oh boy)
Promises you made about coming through
So much time you wasted
That's why I had to replace you

It makes a cat nervous
The thought of settling down
Especially me I was creepin' all over town
I thought my tender touch could lock you down
I knew I had you, as cocky as it sounds
The way you used to giggle right before I put it down *giggle*
It's better when you're angry come here, Ill prove it now
(Come here)

Stop playing
You gaming
I gotta leave you alone

B Section

Chorus

Breakdown
People make mistakes to make-up, to break-up, to wake-up
Cold and lonely chill, baby, you know me
You love me I'm like your homey
Instead of beefin' come hold me
I promise I'm not a phony
Don't bounce baby console me
(Come here)

Bridge
Ain't nothin you can say to me
That can change my mind
I gotta let you go now
And nothing will ever be the same
So just be on your way
Go ahead and do yo thing now
And there's no more to explain to me ya know
I know your game I'm not feelin' what you do

So I'm bouncin' and I'm out son
I gotta leave you alone
Yeah, yeah...

Rap Verse 2
Yo, yo..
It take hard work to cash checks
So don't be fooled by the rocks that I got they assets

Even if you take the good route can't count the hood out
After a while, you don't know who to blend with
Just keep it real with the ones you came in with
Best thing to do is stay low, LOX and J.Lo
They act like they don't but they know,
They can't get a penny from the block
At the end of the day 
She's still just Jenny From The Block
